While some may call Marvel Rivals as an imitation of Overwatch, developer NetEase deserves praise for finding creative ways to appeal to its unabashedly thirsty audience. Introducing Lady Loki, a brand-new skin for the existing Strategist hero Loki, offering players a comics-accurate version of the Asgardian trickster god(dess).
Contrary to some fan speculation, the previously teased Lady Loki costume is not a skin for Hela. Instead, it is a full-on reskin of Loki himself, complete with new voice lines. Judging by the reveal trailer, Lady Loki keeps all of Loki's core powers: his projectile attack, his trickery skill, and Doppelgänger. The only change is her striking new look, designed to appeal to an segment of fans eager to part with their Lattice.
Here is a glimpse at Lady Loki in action, accompanied by a taste of her new voiceover, courtesy of voice actor Abby Trott. Notably Trott is also the voice behind Magik in Marvel Rivals.
Her dialogue and visual flair bring a new dynamic to the well-known playstyle.
With NetEase has opened the door with this gender-bent skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is busy speculating about similar swaps. Fan suggestions now range from:
The big question is: Does NetEase have the courage to deliver less mainstream variants, such as former hero Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That will probably hinge on player requests!
The Lady Loki skin will be available in Marvel Rivals from January 1, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST until January 29, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST.
